Mounting Windows server shares in fstab

$

I want to be able to save to an XLSM file on Windows Server 2008. I can open the file using LibreOffice but cannot save using smb.

Research has let me to believe that I need to somehow mount the server using cifs instead of smb. I have this line in my fstab file.

//192.168.0.16/new_server /media/hpserver cifs -o vers=2.0 iocharset=utf8,credentials=/home/me/.smbcredentials,gid=1000, 0 0

I cannot for the life of me figure out what I am missing. I am either getting a parse error with the -o ver=2.0 or if I remove that part, I get a Host is down error.

Can someone please help me to understand what I am doing wrong? I am running Ubuntu 18.04 64 bits

/media/hpserver is an empty existing folder.
